Holly is a symbol of goodwill and joy. In the Victorian language of flowers, holly means foresight. Holly is seen as a symbol of good luck in both Christianity and Islam. But most importantly for me, it is said that disputes are often solved "under the holly tree"

Sunday Offering #15: "In the News"

Kris Kristofferson was a Rhodes Scholar, and turned down a teaching position at West Point to become a song writer. He begins this song by referring to the Lacy Peterson case. Scott Peterson killed his 8 1/2 month pregnant wife the day before Christmas and threw her body into San Francisco Bay. An unfathonable act, just as the immoral and illegal war that Bush led America into in Iraq against a people who had done nothing to us. "Not in my name, not in God's name, I want nothing but the ending to this war"
